DOH! At least it all worked out!

Are you saying you wanted them to have a Z/28 in the Rolex?

Yes! Go Corvette!

Yeah, I'm sure GM is not looking to have the Corvette and Z/28 compete. Though it would have been interesting.

They could run them in different classes just like they did last year. Just seems silly to me to have corvette running in 2 different classes. (Prototype and GTLM) and no Camaro.... Which could run in the GTD class and not compete with the Corvette at all.

I saw a tweet from the team owner that said Memo was awake and alert at the hospital. Word is his legs are severely injured.

The Red Dragon Corvette prototype (Memo) was passing a slower car not noticing a Ferrari GT car was having trouble accelerating and ran into the Ferrari at speed. Horrific looking hit.

I thought they overturned the ruling giving the Ferrari the win.
